Is Mack the greatest defensive player in MAC history?
100 DAYS, 100 REASONS G6 FOOTBALL MATTERS
No. 80: Khalil Mack at Ohio Stadium — He had the buzz in the MAC. Then he walked into Ohio Stadium and proved it against the No. 2 team in the country.

Who remembers this upset by Louisiana Tech?

100 DAYS, 100 REASONS G6 FOOTBALL MATTERS
No. 79: Fourth-and-22. Two seconds left. The starter was down. And the backup threw a 28-yard touchdown to beat No. 18 Alabama at Legion Field.

My 36-year run at the Sun-Sentinel is over. Laid off for the first time since I lost my job as an ice-rink skate guard at 17. Cost-cutting move then, they said, too. I'm a month from 65, so please keep any sympathy for my newspaper friends who didn’t make it to the finish line like I have. I’m looking forward to doing some things I want to do so before the hall narrows and the light dims so you might not be completely done with me yet. Thanks to everyone who made it such a fun run.

If the NCAA cannot enforce rules against gambling, what CAN it enforce?
Breaking: A judge in district court in Lubbock County, Texas, has granted the injunction requested by Texas Tech QB Brendan Sorsby. He’s set to be eligible for the 2026 season.
Sorsby cannot play in Texas Tech's first two games, which was the penalty his legal team suggested to the NCAA.

Our series on G6 Football has lots of stories like this. Check it out if you haven't, and let us know some others we should profile
100 Days, 100 Reasons G6 Football Matters
No. 82: We Believe.
Every G6 fan base has that in-state power conference program that looks down on them. East Carolina made theirs pay in the 1992 Peach Bowl.

Baseball / CWS is just the biggest stage for what has been one of the greatest years for @TroyAthletics ... Football, MBB and WBB also had strong performances.
The Troy Baseball believers are headed to Omaha. @TheTimStephens on a magical Super Regional run for @TroyTrojansBSB and why it might get even better.

The early days of @ConferenceUSA were fun! I was there.

A brand new league. First football weekend ever. Two wins at SEC stadiums.

Is a separate G6 playoff a good idea for the G6? @TheTimStephens says before answering, better read the fine print.

No. 83: The Snow Game in Laramie.
BYU had Jim McMahon. Wyoming had the weather. An inch of snow, 32 degrees, 7,220 feet. The wishbone ran downhill. Five touchdowns, all from 30 yards or more.
Wyoming 33, BYU 20.

In the rush to make everything about money, the moments can get lost. I wrote about one of them.
6,426 people packed a stadium that seats 2,000. Troy is one win from Omaha.
This is what college athletics should still be about.

This will show my age, but this feels a bit like putting Cleveland State on probation ...

An early program pioneer is still prominent in the UAB record book. I wrote about it.
He backed up Brett Favre at Southern Miss. He transferred to UAB and wrote the record book.
30 years later, John Whitcomb's name is still all over it — and Ryder Burton is chasing it.

Jax State's first national title had a local connection for me. I wrote about it.
In 1992, @JaxStateFB played its last Division II football game. The Gamecocks won a national championship.
@TheTimStephens looks back on that title through the story of one of its stars — who happened to be his high school teammate.

It didn't take long for South Alabama to make some noise in FBS.
They were 28-point underdogs when @SouthAlabamaFB went to Starkville and beat Mississippi State. The program was only 7 years old. Go Back When to a story that helped build the Jags.

Now taking suggestions: Who do you want us to interview first?
60 FBS programs. Millions of fans. Almost zero dedicated national coverage.
The G6 Diehard Podcast is about to change that. College football discussed, debated and covered from the G6 perspective — because those fans deserve it. Hosted by @TheTimStephens

Memphis is going all-in. How will others in the American and G6 respond?
Memphis is paying athletes like a Power 4 program. It isn't one.
What happens if the bet doesn't pay off?

Back in the day, getting a Heisman candidate at Temple required a superhero athlete and a comic-like PR effort.
100 Days, 100 Reasons G6 Football Matters
Paul Palmer put Temple in the Heisman conversation. No conference. No TV deal. Didn't matter.
